Change to Buy Now process
Today we've made a small adjustment to our Buy Now process.
In the past, sellers weren't able to add a Buy Now to a listing if a bid had been placed. From today, sellers will now be able to place a Buy Now on a listing with bids placed, as long as the reserve price hasn't been met. Once the reserve price is met, sellers can no longer add a Buy Now.
